Description

Discover Slovenia’s winter landscapes far from crowded resorts on a guided Nordic backcountry skiing adventure. This experience is ski hiking on cross-country skis, not alpine ski touring. It combines the rhythm of hiking with the freedom of skiing through snowy forests, open plateaus, and alpine valleys. Nordic backcountry skiing is all about movement through nature, gentle ascents, flowing descents, and enjoying the journey rather than chasing steep slopes or technical lines. The tour is suitable for active people with basic cross-country skiing skills and a love for the outdoors. The trip takes place in small groups and is adapted to snow conditions, weather, and the participants’ experience level. Choose between three beautiful locations: Planina Zajavornik: Wide open plateaus and gentle terrain make Zajavornik perfect for a relaxed introduction to Nordic backcountry skiing. Ideal for beginners or anyone looking for an easy-going ski hiking day surrounded by forests and alpine meadows. Tamar Valley: A stunning alpine valley beneath the peaks of the Julian Alps, following the wide and gentle floor of the valley. With a prepared cross-country ski track often leading into the valley, Tamar offers an easy and flowing Nordic backcountry tour, suitable for all levels. Planina Zajamniki: One of Slovenia’s most picturesque alpine pastures, famous for its traditional wooden huts scattered across vast open slopes. A long journey through changing terrain and remote winter scenery offers a rewarding experience for strong, persistent skiers who enjoy true backcountry solitude.
